I spent the last few years at MSOE looking for the best places to eat in Milwaukee. Definitely check out:

The Dogg Haus - As a certified Flatlander currently living in Chicago, I can confirm that these are the most genuine, best tasting Chicago style dogs north of the border. And their Italian Beef rivals Portillos.

Koppa's Deli - Amazing sandwiches and you can play Atari while you wait.

Lucky Liu's - For those on campus, this is the best Chinese around. Still haven't found better takeout crab rangoon. Avoid Chopstix since they got shut down for a couple of days last year by the health inspectors (although they do have some good Orange Chicken).

Conejito's - Super cheap, yet still awesome Mexican. Also Check out Lala's if you're ever down by the airport.

Barnacle Bud's - Go while the weather is still nice. Feels like you're in Florida.

Cubanita's - If you're looking for a nicer but not too expensive dinner for 2 within walking distance from campus, this is the place. For the 21+, great mojitos.

Brady Street. While not so hidden, it is a true, genuine Milwaukee neighborhood. Glorioso's, Sciortino's, Waterford Wine, Balzac, The Roman Coin...and Brady Street will be roaring come this weekend for the Harley anniversary. It will be a great place to be.

Mazo's Hamburgers has been one of my favorite places to eat. I have only been there twice but both times I enjoyed it very much. Along with La Reve Patisserie, their Dacquoise is one of the most fantastic desserts ever. I also enjoy walking to the lake front it always has nice views.

One of my favorite places in MKE is the Milwaukee Art Museum, it is kind of a landmark for Milwaukee. Its architect Calatrava designed very few gorgeous buildings around the world, and we are so lucky to have one of them. City of Chicago is trying to build one of his projects, too, but not yet. Another great place is Villa Terrace. There are many others of course, especially if you enjoy architecture, there are so many beautiful mansions in East Side and North Shore areas.

Whether you love bacon or you're vegan, they've got something for you. Plus they offer the largest ***** of meatloaf and mashed potatoes that I've ever seen on one plate. This is how comfort food is meant to be.

Hands down, Discovery World! Beautiful building right on the shore of Lake Michigan, overflowing with tons of hands-on exhibits. Anyone want to learn how to fly a helicopter? http://www.discoveryworld.org/

If there are any history buffs in the crowd, I once took a tour of the Forest Home Cemetery that talked about all of the beer barrons and other city founders that are buried there. Very interesting stuff.

LOVE that Cemetary! Not only is it historically educational, it's so bautiful, especially theold architecture and the foliage. Fall is the Best time to go for me. It's peaceful, truly a must do at least once!!

McKinley Marina Pier, a walk out to the end of this pier gives one of the best views of the city. If you bike along the lakefront bike trail you can ride about halfway out onto the pier and then walk it the last half.

I have made a plan to welcome/impress my parents from China. So here we go:

1) Historic Third Ward for window shopping; people enjoy sitting on patios, sipping away on drinks. The cobblestone streets and cool lampposts give you a glimpse of European nostalgia.

2) Milwaukee Public Market for seafood; Mussels stir in garlic, lobster with melted butter and vinegar, tender oyster with cocktail sauce...the rich perfection of seafood gratified your appetite and a need to live at the moment. (p.s. special price on Monday for mussels, and on Thursday for oysters. It's a steal deal)

3) Milwaukee Repertory Theater (the Rep) for watching plays. You get to feel personalities and see characters right in front of you. (tip: manage your time and go right before the play, you will get a super good deal on tickets.)

4) Milwaukee Art Museum After Dark; There are monthly After Dark events in the museum. You go to the museum in the daytime to appreciate artworks, while go there at night to live in a style. When the waves rolled by like scrolls of silver, you get to enjoy 80s music, and a silvery silence of your mind.
